Chapter 219

A map of the entire city of Norland unfolded on Sir Weissenasche’s desk.

Now that Joshua had finished auditioning the cast for the movie, he needed to find a suitable site to shoot the movie.

“Mister Joshua, according to the script, the male lead Professor Parker will go to the stage station to take a carriage every day. If my memories serve me correct, these are the places in Norland with stage stations.”

After Joshua finished his performers selection, Sir Weissenasche also managed to read the movie script ahead of time.

He began to sincerely read the script. He was looking forward to what sort of stunning story Joshua will present this time. But, upon finishing the script, Sir Weissenasche discovered that this movie, when compared to ‘Léon: The Demon’ and ‘Beauty and the Demon,’ was simply too dull.

Having never raised a pet before, Sir Weissenasche was not touched by the story at all.

But, as it was Joshua’s movie, Sir Weissenasche would naturally have to give his full support.

“The City of Norland is... larger than I imagined.”

Joshua examined the locations on the map Sir Weissenasche circled with his feather pen.

As one of the most flourishing cities in this world, touring the entire Norland on foot would be an unwise idea. Because of that, the intelligent merchants had invented carriage rental stage stations.

“Those stage stations are all being operated by the Klia Trading Company. Renting an entire stage station to shoot a movie will not cost too much gold coins.”

As the theater owner of Norland’s most popular theater, Sir Weissenasche was someone who was qualified to say those words.

“We will use this stage station for filming.”

Joshua pointed at the circle located at the extremity of Squirrel Street. The Squirrel Street was located at Norland’s borders and was also the cheapest and most impoverished street in Norland. But... that was something in the past.

“Squirrel Street again? Mister Joshua, I felt like there are several other streets that could serve as an alternative...”

Sir Weissenasche wiped away the sweat on his forehead in a habit-like manner. He had a nervous expression on his face. Having lived in Norland for over a dozen years, he knew Squirrel Street’s notorious reputation extremely well.

While filming ‘Léon: The Demon,’ he also managed to experience firsthand the special ‘ethics’ and ‘culture’ of that street.

While filming in Squirrel Street, Sir Weissenasche had encountered many dangerous beings. For example, there were Cave Giants, Rock Giants and intelligent Undead creatures.

When he saw those nearly three meters tall creatures walk past him, he was so terrified that his heart was shivering.

“I believe that your knowledge regarding Squirrel Street is outdated, Sir Weissenasche.”

Joshua pointed to a corner on the Squirrel Street. That was where Hotel Black Dove was.

“Ever since the movie ‘Léon: The Demon’ screened in this theater, the number of people visiting Squirrel Street started increasing. Among them, the majority were fans of the movie. The others were merchants and tourists.”

“Fans... I can understand why they’d want to go there. But why would merchants go there?”

Sir Weissenasche was not a keen businessman. If he was, he wouldn’t have watched helplessly as his own theater was forced to nearly go bankrupt.

“In the past, Squirrel Street would indeed be considered to be a place full of chaos and disorder. I believe that even if they’re tourists that came to visit Norland from other countries, they would not bother to check out Squirrel Street. But, after ‘Léon: The Demon’ screened, it transformed the entire street...”

Joshua tapped his finger at the Hotel Black Dove’s location.

“Here is the apartment that Mathilda and Léon lived in! It is also the place they met! And here...”

Joshua moved his finger to the restaurant across from Hotel Black Dove.

“Still remember this place? This is the restaurant where Léon received his mission. And then there’s this place. This is the only meadow in Squirrel Street. It is the place where Léon lies after death. In the movie, Mathilda buried Léon’s potted plant here.”

After Joshua finished those explanations, he turned to look at Sir Weissenasche.

“Say, what do you think the places where the characters from ‘Léon: The Demon’ have appeared in meant to a fan of the movie?”

Sir Weissenasche’s forehead was completely drenched in sweat. He did not extend his hand to wipe away his sweat. His facial expression had stiffened and his mouth was slightly open. In the end, a single term appeared in his mind.

“They’re sa... sacred grounds!”

That was the only term Sir Weissenasche could think of to describe those places.

As he had participated in the filming for ‘Léon: The Demon,’ he had been to all those places. Not only that... he was also the person who ‘killed’ Léon.

But, if it was the movie ‘Beauty and the Demon’ instead, then Sir Weissenasche could swear that the place he wanted to go the most in his life would be the castle where Belle and the Demon Prince met each other.

In the past, he had inquired Joshua about the castle. Joshua smiled at his question and revealed the imprint from the Duke of Bones to him and informed him of the true owner of that castle. Once Sir Weissenasche learned about what the castle really was, he was immediately terrified.

But, after being called to attention about the places in the movie ‘Léon: The Demon,’ he couldn’t help but think about that castle again.

“Thus, Mister Joshua, the reason why you’ve chosen that stage station as the filming site for ‘Hachiko: A Dog’s Tale’ is also because of that?”

“Of course... That’s why, Sir Weissenasche, I do not need you to rent this stage station. Instead, I want you to purchase it. This includes all the houses nearby.”

If Joshua’s memories served him correct, ‘Hachiko: A Dog’s Tale’ was based on an actual story that happened on earth. There were even people who went as far as to create sculptures for the loyal dog Hachiko.

After Joshua finished filming his movie, he will also put up a sculpture of the dog before the stage station. At that time, there would definitely be a lot of movie fans that would come to visit it.

“But, the people from Squirrel Street... are difficult to talk with.”

Sir Weissenasche was truly too scared to conduct business in Squirrel Street. Besides, the residents there were very much against human outsiders purchasing their properties.

“The organization in charge of Squirrel Street is my people. You only need to prepare funds and make the transaction seem legitimate.”

Apart from the fact that Squirrel Street was very cheap and very few merchants would even bother to open up shop there before the movie ‘Léon: The Demon,’ the other reason why Joshua chose Squirrel Street was because it was actually managed by ‘Black Dove.’

Joshua only needed to wait for the dark elf to uphold her control over ‘Black Dove.’ Then, with a sufficient amount of funds, he would be able to purchase the entire street.

After that... he will transform it into another world’s ‘Hollywood.’

A classic movie would be able to provide an endless amount of transformation. That included the rise of tourism.

“Soon, Squirrel Street will become the most bustling street in Norland. Or perhaps it would be better to say that it will be the street with the greatest number of tourists,” said Joshua.
